the upward stroke of the dasher stalln those hoods 't3 which are located below the said plane will have the saine effect upon the At the same tirne the flanges or blades 5 and G will operate in the liquid and inasniach as posed at acute angles with relation to the plane in which the portions 2, 3 and el lie, the weight oi the liquid in the churn body will have a tendency to Cause the disk l to swing back and forth upon the dasher stall and thus the currents ofliquid which are poured outwardlyY and radially bv the hoods S) are ope l'ated upon by the flanges or blades 5 and the adjacent edges ot the portions of the disk and hence the liquid is thoroughly :l gitated whereby the churning operation is taooilitated.

In the event that the disk l is fixed to the dasher .stal the hoods 8 and f) 'will 'force the liquid outwardly and radially as herein* before described upon the .erlieal reeii'irocation of the dasher and dasher sha'lit. ln asniueh as the dasher stall is held .in the hand ol the operator and cannot turnor rol ate to an \v appreciable degree during its reeiproeatory niovenient the blad es or flanges 5 will operate iii-the liquid to cause the saine these langes' or blades are disto move back and forth in circular paths' thus agitating the same and accomplishing the churning operation. l

F rom the foregoing description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, it will be seen that a churn dasher of simple andA 'lurable structure is provided and that the saine may be easily and readily used to eiieetually and efficiently accomplish the churning operation.

Having described the invention what is claimed is A churn dasher in the form of a disk hav.n ing central, peripheral and radially disposed portions lying in the same plane, there being provided at the edges of the said radially disposed portionsblades which are disposed at acute angles with the said plane, some of the blades being extended above the plane andthe others below the said plane and Cone shaped hoods provided upon the central portion and disposed some above the plane thereof and the others below the plane thereof, the larger ends of the said hoods being outwardly disposed and openu ln testimony whereof I' aliix niy signature.
